Dietary element
Dietary elements (commonly known as dietary minerals) or mineral nutrients are the chemical elements required by living organisms, other than the four elements carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen present in common organic molecules. The term "dietary mineral" is archaic, as the substances it refers to are chemical elements rather than actual minerals.
